Yep , there are a few. I have a little 2002 Yamaha PW80 I let my sisters drive, it is a play bike that I have been moding. Bored twice over, rejetted, airbox modified, head milled for greater compression, oil injector disconnected and pre-mixed fuel instead, 13 CS sprocket from 15 stock, Preload spacers for front and rear shock, rear shock remounted to raise bike height 3 inches, 20W fork oil 5.5 inches from top when fully compressed, removed exhaust restrictor, and a few other mods I can't think of just yet. Porting comes next. I have done all these mods myself, picked up the bike for 300CDN as a learning tool to play with before going too crazy on my KDX, all these mods have been done by myself including machining.
When my sisters get good enough at riding this little beast I plan on getting them a motocross 80, but for the moment it teaches them to ride, although, without a clutch.
Wouldnt mind owning a CR500 for the fire roads, Am I allowed to say that?

Of course. But at least we all know our green bikes are our favourites. And since I learned on my 1988 KDX200, it still has a special spot in my heart.kdx220freak wrote:lol, just a question does anyone on this site have a dirt bike that isnt made from kawasaki
I ride the red bike because I am older, less aggressive, and often need to go slower to stay with the youngsters we are always teaching. I am the "grandpa" in the group even though none of my kids are married. This means we old slower patient guys are taking the 10 -15 year olds when they get bikes and making sure they come back in one piece. The red bike is amazing when I need a little slow speed grunt to get out of trouble.
But I love my KDX. It starts one kick, I can still pick it up a few dozen times per day and it climbs like crazy if I have the guts to stay on the throttle!!

...and the voice of experience rang in...
If you are going to have more than one bike, try to have at least one in a condition known as...
"assembled"
I have found that it makes it a lot easier to move around when it is in one piece than one hundred.

Which one? I am working on the 1994 KDX200 right now. It is first on "the assembly line". I have a few pictures of it in its current state in my Gallery.
